Bile prospects before them. Every hotel Is

while there are yet many rooms to be had In
the village. some Of the houses are filed
from basement to garrett.
The most brilliant social event OF the sea-
son thus far took place at the Oasis Club
house last evening. A reception was given
TO the ladies through the day, and great
many were in attendance. Over fifteen hun
dred invitations were issued, and a large pro-
portion Of this number were present The
hall in which the ladies' were received was
handsomely decorated with flags and drap-
cries and evergreen. The Lindall band from
Boston furnished the music. The building
was brilliantly Illuminated during the even
Ing with Japanese lanterns and the Incan-
descent lights. There were at least tccO
people present.

LEwIsToN's DRUG STORES.
The Commissions Of Pharmacy
Makes Some Interesting
Discoveries.

DIR. III. 4. Cummings. the Commissioner Of
Pharmacy, has some very interesting things
to say about the drug business in Lewiston.
Not long ago he received complaint from
some of the reputable druggists of the city

stocks OF drugs, not very varied however.
and putting out signs as reputable pharma-
cists. These fellows had never so 1t was
charged, passed the examination nor secured
the registration which the law directs. DR..
Cummings reached Lewiston Wednesday,
and took tour around among these drug
stores" He found eight where the proprie-
tors had neither registers nor knowledge Of
the business; and he has since learned that
there were two which he overlooked. The
principal medicine sold, he says, was rum,
in which there appeared to be a good sum
mer trade. Most of them are kept by
Frenchmen, who do not see the use Of reg
lister or any particular knowledge for a drug
gist. The proprietors Of three Of the stores
refused to answer any Of DIR. Cummings
questions, and seemed to look upon him as
man that was interfering with something
that was none Of his business. These three
DIR. Cummings has got first on the list. DR..
Cummings found the management Of the
drug store from which the deadly wine Of
colchieum was sold with such fatal results a
few weeks ago, under far from satisfactory
management, and he has that on his list for
further investigation.
1t is altogether probable that complaint
will be made against some. or all, OF the
eight druggists, ,.and that the county attorney
of Androscoggin County will have some

IMMIGRATION AND SOCIALISM,
utterances by Master Workman
PowderIy and Henry George.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5.-In the Journal
OF United Labor to be issued tomorrow, Mr..
Powderly, speaking of indiscriminate immi-
grafton, will say that it is one of the most
serious dangers to the country and one of
the knottiest problems for our statesmen.to
solve. Working people already here are ell
bowling one another in an uncomfortable
way. If the foreign contract labor evil
should be stopped and only those who intend
to assume the responsibilities of citizen ship
admitted, the outlook would not be SO dark,
Tor the rawest material may become refined
in time.
Mr. Powderly, in the same paper makes a
defence OF the workingmen who have been
reckoned in the dangerous classes. In the
time of trouble of whatsoever character he
says none make such sacrifice of personal in
terestS as this dangerous class. They are
called dangerous because they seek legisla-
tive justice ana because they ask for honest
men to administer the affairs of the people.
The defaulters, thieves and conspirators of
the church, state and society are the really
dangerous classes. Industry, he concludes,
never yet was found the enemy of a nation
prosperity. The enemy is idle wealth, vic
iOus in its tastes, Temorseless in its selfish
ambition, heartless in its oppressive aims.
To Decide Socialism on Its Merits.
NEW YORK, @Aug. 5-Henry George, in
the Standard of today, says that the plat
form to be adopted at the coming State con
vention of the United Labor party should
firmly and clearly define the position of the
party with relation to Socialists. The efforts
of the Socialists to foist their peculiar ideas
upon the party have become so notorious
that any attempt to evade the issue would
give the enemies of the party pretext to
make the charges that they do. He thinks
that the issue should be settled at once and
is not therefore in favor of excluding social
istic delegates from the convention He
would like to see that element represented
by its aplest opponents and have the ques-
tion decided on its merits. George thinks
that the Socialists can accomplish more good
with the United Labor party than they can
by working separately, but they must abol-
ish some of their foreign ideas or they can
have no place in the movement that he rep
resents.

STATISTICS OF DIVORCE.
The Government Collecting informa-
ton for the Benefit of Legislators.
Especial 10 the Press. !


AUGUSTA, Aug. 5.-By an appropriation
made by Congress at its last session to be
expended under the National Labor Bureau,
statistics regarding divorce are to be COL
lected throughout the Union to aid the legis-
latures in enacting similar laws regulating
divorce. August lst, experts were sent out
by the Bureau into New England. one man
being assigned to Connecticut and Rhode
Island. one TO Massachusetts and another to
Vermont and New Hampshire. The agent
for Maine, Mr. George G. Kimball of Wash
ington, d. c., has arrived at Augusta, and
begun his labor of examining the records at
the Court House today. This being the be-
ginning of the work its magnitude or length
can hardly be correctly estimated now, al
though something like two weeks will prob
ably be needed for this county, after which
the other counties in the State will be visit
ed in rotation.
After New England is completed the
corps of experts employed will be trans
ferred to other States. The statistics cover
period of 20years past and embrace the
number of marriages, number of divorces,
what the complaint was for and by which
party made, and children remaining after a
divorce was granted. Mr.. Kimball was a
native of York county, and graduate of
Bowdoin College, class of 1862.

as the weather was concerned. In fact there
mas hardly been better day for the past

preparatory TO leaving Everything was
made snug and shipshape aboard all the
RATS and fine race was looked for. By 8
o'clock the wind had veered little to the
south and was blowing more freshly, with
good prospect Of more to follow.
The following were the entries Of the frst

The course was around the Sow and Pigs
and the Hen and Chickens. At 10I5 the
starting gun awoke the echoes and shortly
after the Puritan crossed the line. The Vol
unteer, Maydower and Atlantic were among
the last to start, but all crept up on the lead
ers. As the Volunteer made the, first tarn
at the Sow and Pigs without having TO tack,
she got big lead on the Puritan, the emily
beat In the fleet left for her 10 race. In some
way the MayflOwer caught the Puritan but
was unable TO get by her The Priscilla was
left far behind. The Volunteer came In
grandly ahead Of the other sloops. BY cor
rected time the contestants finished In the
following order; Mayaower, 8 minutes and
~ seconds behind the Volunteer; Atlantic,
Puritan and Priscilla. The Mayfower was
not sailed particularly well and the Volun-
teer was badly crowded among the schOOn-
ers at one time. She Is at least eight min
utes better than the Mayhower.
The cutter Bed0uin was among the small
Ter sloops. But for her heavy handicap OF
six minutes, she would have beaten every
thing but the Volunteer on corrected time
In the schooner class the Palmer started
first, and although she crept ahead a little she
